What exactly do i have here?

Hey guys i popped to the local carboots today and picked up these two items. The first is what i believe to be an Italian Divisional Arm shield? although the seller thought it was French. That cost me £12 and i am pretty sure that i got it at a good price but do any of you guys know where i can combine prices with this item? Also i brought a small badge for £5, there was a small emblem on the badge which i recognised and had a look through a couple of books and i think that it is czechoslovakian. Could you guys see if my hunches are right and also could you help me with some more information on these items.
Thanks, Glen.

Re: What exactly do i have here?

Top one is an Italian Infantry badge, wwII, and the other one is as you said Czech. The Czech badge is a badge worn by the legionairs who fought in wwI. The Italian 23rd Infantry regiment Murge fought with the Germans in Yougaslvia (operation Weiss?).
